Ingredients
- 50 g Shiitake mushrooms
- 50 g Oyster mushrooms
- 50 g brown champignons
- 2 Shallots
- 0.5 Lemon
- 20 g Butter
- Salt
- Pepper
- 1 Egg yolk
- 75 g very fine veal mince
- 2 tbsp Heavy cream
- 3 Stiele Tarragon
- 800 g large chicken breast fillets with skin (4 large chicken breast fillets)
- 150 g floury potatoes
- 500 g Jerusalem artichokes
- 275 ml Milk (1.5% fat)
- 1 tbsp Rapeseed oil
- 50 ml dry vermouth (or apple juice)
- 75 ml White wine (or grape juice)
- 125 ml Chicken broth
- 125 ml Soy cream
- Nutmeg
Instructions
- 1. Clean the mushrooms and dice them very finely. Peel the shallots and chop them finely as well. Squeeze the lemon.
- 2. Heat the butter in a pan. Sauté the mushrooms and shallots in it over medium heat, stirring. Continue cooking at the same heat until all liquid has evaporated. Season with salt, pepper, and a few splashes of lemon juice. Let the mixture cool completely.
- 3. Separate the egg. Mix the minced meat with the egg yolk, whipping cream, salt, and pepper. Chill the mixture. (Use the egg white for something else.)
- 4. Wash the tarragon, shake it dry, pluck off the leaves, and chop them finely. Set half aside. Mix the other half with the mushroom mixture and the minced meat.
- 5. Wash the chicken fillets and pat them dry. Make a small horizontal cut into the upper, rounded end of each breast with a sharp knife.
- 6. Insert the handle of a wooden spoon into the cut. Move it back and forth to form a pocket.
- 7. Fill the mushroom mixture into a piping bag with a long star tip. Pipe the mixture into the chicken breasts. Close the opening with a toothpick. Chill the breasts covered with plastic wrap.
- 8. Wash, peel, and quarter the potatoes. Wash the Jerusalem artichokes thoroughly with a brush and cut them into pieces. Add both to the milk with some salt. Bring to a boil and simmer covered over low to medium heat for 20 minutes.
- 9. Heat the oil in a non-stick pan. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Sear them in the hot fat on each side. Remove them and place them on a baking sheet. Cook in the preheated oven at 200 °C (convection: 180 °C, gas: setting 3) for 12-15 minutes. Cover with aluminum foil and let them rest in the turned-off oven for 10 minutes.
- 10. Stir in the vermouth and white wine to the pan. Add the poultry broth and soy cream. Reduce the sauce to a creamy consistency over medium heat.
- 11. Drain the Jerusalem artichokes and potatoes, reserving the milk. Mash the vegetables. Stir in enough milk to create a creamy puree. Season with salt, pepper, and grated nutmeg.
- 12. Add the remaining tarragon to the sauce. Lightly whisk the sauce with a hand blender until frothy. Slice the chicken. Serve with the puree and sauce.
